I love Bazreias too, but for some reason, I am with Brian on this one, I like both, but the HRE's do it for me just a tad more. Regardless, your ride is looking good.

Sorry for the late reply i have bin super super busy with med school!!!

-I payed about 3k for the wheels
-the book and heat gun turned out good actually i was very very impressed with how good it actually worked!
-specs on the wheels are 19x9.5 19x10.5 +25 and 10mm spacer up front!
- no i didnt cut the inside out...i should of shaved my rear qtr panel too before rolling my fenders, the sexus was my first stance build and at first i just wanted to be lowered and not rub but now i want to go way more aggressive so i will have to think of something, besides cambering the f*** out of the wheels
-No i dont have any shots of the engine bay from that exact night but i do have a nice engine bay shot i will post up later on!

For all you guys who really like these wheels, i'm already thinking about switching it up for a different set, if anybody is interested in a trade let me know what you got and yes i'm also willing to sell the wheels....The tires are sumito's 225/35 and 255/35 which are still very very new, purchased them this season.
The car was not driven very much this season because i was doing so much work on it in the garage and when i was done i already had to go back to medical school for the 2nd year.

Very nice, minus the stickers (in my opinion) this this is gorgeous. As for the BMW, to this day is the best looking 3 series theyve made.

they were 19x9.5 +25 and 10.5 +25 and i added a 10mm spacer up front so the ls400 calipers were cleared and in the rear i added a 5mm spacers just to have it pop out more.
With my next setup I'm going to be getting soon i will be running 19x9.5 +12 and 10.5 +15 on 225/35's and 255/35's. Im kind of worried they won't fit though and i will have no choice but to do more fender work. Anyways all in all it should come out looking very very sporty with the look I'm going for!
